Split

Split is busy and big (it's Croatia's second largest city) but it remains one of the Adriatic's most vibrant cities, stunningly located between mountains and sea. It's the economic and cultural center of the Dalmatian coast. Diocletian's Palace, a World Heritage Site, is the main attraction but there are so many things to do, including day trips, world-class nightlife and restaurants that it's impossible to be bored.

Trogir

Trogir is a gem that should be included even on the fastest of itineraries. Located just thirty minutes west of Split by car. With a population of just over 10,000. it was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1997 and is home to a number of fascinating historic sights. The old town is located on an island, accessible by bridges from the mainland. This town is tiny. Really tiny. You can walk from one end to the other in five minutes, if you move fast. But this tiny town is packed with charm, scenic views, and lots of great restaurants.

Vis

Serving as an army base for 50 years when Vis finally opened in 1989, visitors were pleased to discover that its natural beauty remained intact. The natural vegetation of Vis Island includes pine trees, and citrus orchards as well as exotic species such as palm trees, cacti and a particularly rare silver palm tree. Much of the island is devoted to vineyards that produce the famous white wine, "Vugava". No nightlife, no package tourists, no big hotels, no fuss; Vis Island so epitomized Mediterranean life that it was chosen as the filming location for Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again! Using the picturesque old stone towns of Vis and Komiza as a backdrop for their musical it may well be that slow-paced, uncrowded Vis will soon be gone forever. The lovely Blue Cave is on tiny Bisevo island just in front of Komiza.

Brač

Despite its proximity to Split, Brac is less touristy than the glittering island of Hvar. No celebrities glide their yachts into Brac harbors. so it provides an excellent window into authentic island life. Brac is a relatively dry island; you won't find the vegetation, but there are some lovely spots along the rocky shores and great scuba diving from Lucice Bay where we do our scuba diving. Brac is most famous for its beautiful white building stone which has been exploited since ancient Rome. Diocletian's Palace in Split was built from Brac stone and it is still used in the construction of buildings as far afield as Europe and north America. The small town of Bol on the south side of the island hosts a big, beautiful beach. Zlatni Rat or Golden Horn beach is Croatia's most famous beach that changes from shallow and shady to sunny and deep, depending on the time of day and the wind.

Dugi otok

Dugi Otok is a wonderful place to visit if you’re looking to get ‘off the beaten track’! Despite Croatia’s popularity, even in the summer months this island well and truly provides travellers with some peace and quiet. Its name literally means ‘long island’ – for it is indeed of this description (it is 45km long) – and is known for its vineyards and orchards, Saharun beach in the north, and Telascica Nature Park that covers the southern part of the island.

Krka waterfalls

Extending along the 73km Krka River, The National Park runs from the Adriatic near Šibenik inland to the mountains of the Croatian interior. It’s a magical place of waterfalls and gorges, with the river gushing through a karstic canyon 200m deep. Sights built by humans are also a major draw of the region, the area’s remoteness attracting monks who constructed their monasteries here. Enjoy your swim in waterfalls of the National park Krka.

Kornati

The Kornati Islands National Park is a spectacular archipelago that includes 109 mostly uninhabited islands, islets, reefs and craggy rocks scattered like pearls over the ocean. Playwright George Bernard Shaw wrote "On the last day of the Creation God desired to crown his work, and thus created the Kornati Islands out of tears, stars and breath". There are now a few more materials involved but the stark almost lunar magic of the islands is still bewitching. It's a sailor's paradise. On the southwestern side, the coasts of the Kornati Islands are marked by steep cliffs or "crowns" that make the coastline unique and dramatic. The best way to see the islands is with a helicopter tour and that’s exactly what we are going to do.
